Pakistan UK Spouse visa appeals

[MGH]

Hi All,

My wife spouse visa refused on following grounds.

1. Appendix 2 form not submitted so Eco decides marriage is not genuine
2. I submitted my part time pay slip along with sa302 form from my self employment. my self employed declared income was more than the requirement but HO called me and dig into my employment in details.

I would like to ask is it better to go for appeal or to make fresh application and if fresh application should I just ignore my employment or I will have to address that as well in my new application. I am expecting to re apply by next month as my wife need to give new English test.

Hope to hear some informative feedback.

Regards

Sorry to hear of your refusal, please type out exact wording of reasons for refusal from the notice you refused.

It is a long 3 pages refusal stating on appendix 2 form is mendatory and is not completed so Eco assessed on evidence submitted. It says your sponsor is not related within prohibited degree of relation as defined by marriage act 1986 & civil partnership act 2004. Therefore Eco not satisfied this marriage is valid. And there fore refuse under paragraph Ecp-1.1 (d)
On financial requirement paragraph it says that sa302 form and payslips were provided. Eco acknowledged that a sa302 form provided shows warning of £21k however this is simply based on the information provided on self assessment in the knowledge he was required to earn £18600 for the purposes of your visa application. This does not independent corroborate that your sponsor has actually earned this figure, and in the light of above discrepancies I am not satisfied three tax payments satisfactory establish that your sponsor is employed as it claimed.

I therefore refused your application because I'm not satisfied, on the balance of probablities that you meet all the requirement of the relevant paragraph of uk immigration laws.

I hope this will give you idea.

Thanks

It's is quite comprehensive, your solicitor of you had one when you made your application should have picked up on these discrepancies. The documents required to evidence self employment are far more complicated than employment. Reapply with all required documentation, you should have success

[Nav80]

Thanks mgm,

I spoke to my solicitor and he only likes to submit my self employment document. I am just wondering should I address the discrepancy raised in my part time employment or not. Will it have any impact on my new application as my income from self employment is enough and I can provide comprehensive documents to prove it as well.

Leave the part time job out, keep things simple for the ECO, less chance of refusal, if you feel you have the the required documents to evidence self employment, reapply with priority service, remember to include the previous application, reason for refusal was not meeting financial requirement.

[Nav80]

Thanks mgm,

Yes my income from self employment as declared to hmrc and all invoices paid into my account was £21k and this year tax is still not due so I will have to re apply on the basis Of previous sa302 but to back that I can attach invoices that I raised from my work paid via company I worked for and bank statement. Should it be enough evidence to prove and I will keep it simple not to include employment at all.

I'm very much thanks full for you input.

Thanks once again

...and what about the refusal due to "It says your sponsor is not related within prohibited degree of relation as defined by marriage act 1986 & civil partnership act 2004. Therefore Eco not satisfied this marriage is valid."
How will you respond to this?

I'm pretty sure it's always the appellant who is contacted, as it is them who is appealing against the decision to grant entry clearance.

Do you not have a solicitor? It's their job to chase the HO, after all it is what you pay them for.

Average wait for a court date is 8-12 months after being listed for court. . There's actually a waiting list before the listing for court waiting list. The whole process from the time you submitted the appeal takes 12-18 months on average now

Salaam all

I received this in the post on Friday, I am not sure what it means. I tried calling my lawyer but he isn't picking up.



Has anyone else received something like this? What am I supposed to do?
